Package: xbase-clients
Version: 3.3.6-3
Severity: normal


Trying to use the ``dpms force'' options fail:

   diziet% xset dpms force standby
   X Error of failed request:  BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
     Major opcode of failed request:  145 (DPMS)
     Minor opcode of failed request:  6 (DPMSForceLevel)
     Serial number of failed request:  9
     Current serial number in output stream:  11

I'm perfectly willing to believe that this problem is due to
missing support in the video driver (PowerMac Platinum
framebuffer, in this case) or some other package, but I'd
appreciate knowing that.  I would *love* to get DPMS working --
I'm tired of having to remember to turn off my monitor every
night!
